James then appeared with white bandages wrapped around his face underneath a hoodie

The Bilateral Otoplasty (ear correction surgery) with top surgeon Dr Riccardo Frati, who performed his Towie cast mates James Argent and Mario Falcone rhinoplasty as well as Charlotte Crosby recent breast enhancement, set him back £5,000, while the hair transplant last month cost him a whopping £6,000.

Speaking about his recent ear surgery he said: "I looked like the elephant man. When I woke up I looked like I'd been attacked.

"The bandages made it look like I had a massive trauma. I was still buzzing from the drugs they gave me to go under, and I had to sign a waiver which said I could die, but I was so confident in my surgeon.

"I went home a few hours later and that night when I went to bed it began to hurt. It was aching and throbbing, a bit like someone had punched you in the ears."
